Axle hell
Hi,
I've made myself a problem... I wanted to fit C5 wheels on my 10 bolt 2nd gen Camaro rear axle. I need spacers to mount them easily and for convenience I wanted to order standard C5 adapters since I also have the AFX spindle up front. I'm also converting to 2002 Camaro/LS1 brakes on the rear. The stock axle hub is 70.5 (measured 70.6) mm so I decided to machinde the axle hub down to the C5 70.3 mm.
What I didn't think about is that the brake rotors should be centered on the hub but now the are not perfectly centered anymore. I should only have machined off the outher half of the hub...
Is there anything I can do to regain the hubcentricity of the brake rotors still allowing the use of the C5 adapters?
My other option is to buy new stock axles and order custom built adapters instead. The C5 adapters are readily available and are cheaper then the custom made ones...
